Lol, although, I don't think DT would be drawing her sword twice....
Scowling, she drew her sword. "Alright soldiers," She called out as she turned to face the other ponies. "Ponyville is in danger, and Princess Twilight and her friends are away. That means -- " she drew her sword and raised it above her head "-- it's up to us to save the day."
4929390 three times actually. She pulls it out again when she orders the charge. Keep in mind, this is all a dream she is having so logic doesn't completely fit. Each time she draws it, notice that it is at a point where it would be extremely dramatic and heroic looking.
Okay, I officially hate this Aura more than I did Tiara and Spoon combined. Well done, and I hope the little bitch gets an epic beat down in the future.
You are supposed to lock away your valuables in your footlocker so your things don't get stolen or lost. You aren't allowed to leave anything out.
Logically, in order to get the cookies, Aura would have had to break into Diamond Tiara's locker. You could say DT accidentally left it open, but these are checked every night to make sure they're locked, so Aura pretty much broke into Diamond Tiara's stuff.
Breaking a lock and stealing from your comrades is an integrity violation, which is an NJP-able offense. Best-case scenario is Aura gets page 11'd and will never be promoted for her whole career. Worst-case scenario is she gets removed from the military altogether.
Diamond Tiara? She'd probably be dropped to a newer platoon for starting a fight (assuming the Drill Instructors feel like doing the paperwork), but she'd definitely still be able to stay in the program.
Oh dear... I can remember several times in Boot Camp where I had to pull people off each other.
One guy screws up, everybody gets screwed.
Looked at your comments from what the Author said in the chapter after this. Read the most recent first, got to the above comment. And I still remember Drill Sergeant Heinemann and Hurricane Heinemann with the Chinese Carpet Ninjas ... E 1/37 had as a majority the worst group of peers [not all there were some awesome dudes there], and that hurricane struck at least 6 times a day.
Anyways. Thanks for your comments. Made things take the turn for the interesting in this fic. Have a cookie.
she watched the dangers that was threatening to destroy her home town
This should be "were". "She watched the dangers that were threatening to destroy her hometown."
The changeling -- unblinking -- reached out with one hoof and snatched the arrow out of the air in front of him. He narrowed his eyes at Diamond Tiara, a slow chuckle forming in his throat. The arrow exploded, sending the changeling flying.
"Alright soldiers," She called out as she turned to face the other ponies. "Ponyville is in danger, and Princess Twilight and her friends are away. That means -- " she drew her sword and raised it above her head "-- it's up to us to save the day."
A round of cheers came from the crowd.
"We will show them," she continued. "We will be swift, we will be brutal, we will be victorious. We will teach them what ponies can do, and they will learn the true meaning of the word fear. They will learn what The Diamond Cutters can do!"
INSTRUCTOR: "I could have become an instructor at the Solar SOCOM Academy but... nooo! I had to take a posting dealing with all these snot-nosed brats in Basic!
"We will show them," she continued. "We will be swift, we will be brutal, we will be victorious. We will teach them what ponies can do, and they will learn the true meaning of the word fear. They will learn what The Diamond Cutters can do!"
That does sound cool.
Diamond Tiara jumped high into the air, becoming a silhouette against the sun. Her sword gleamed as she drew it from the sheath. With a ferocious snarl, she came down, swinging her blade to slice right through the timberwolf's neck in a single stroke. Diamond Tiara turned her back to the creature, holding the position she landed in as it exploded behind her.
OFF WITH YOUR HEAD! Also, explosions, yeah, right out of Power Rangers. Mind you this is a dream, but, still.
"Diamond Tiara," the first changeling said, "we meet again." His eyes narrowed as he smirked. "How is the knee?" "Little stiff," Diamond Tiara replied, "but not too bad." She quirked an eyebrow. "How's your balls?" The changeling snarled out, his face turning bright red.
HAH!
The arrow exploded, sending the changeling flying.
"You... you ate... all of them?!"
Normally I'd make a joke here. but, this since is serious, I won't.
"I'm going to make sure you never eat a cookie again," Diamond Tiara growled before yelling: "because when I'm done with you, you're going to be eating through a bucking straw!"
Diamond, Diamond, I know you're mad, but be the bigger mare, take the high ground; report her for theft and breaking into your stuff to your superiors-and she's not going to, is she?
"What in the name of Tartarus is going on here?" Both Diamond Tiara and Aura looked up to see the glare of the drill sergeant. Slowly, the two formerly fighting mares looked around, realizing that all the other ponies in the barracks were awake and staring at them.
Welp. Yo bucked.
"It's her fault!" they both shouted, pointing an accusing hoof at the other.
Really. Really? Y-you're going there, the It's the other's fault, I know it's the heat of the moment, but, act like full grown mares!
"Alright soldiers," She called out as she turned to face the other ponies. "Ponyville is in danger, and Princess Twilight and her friends are away. That means -- " she drew her sword and raised it above her head "-- it's up to us to save the day."
A round of cheers came from the crowd.
"We will show them," she continued. "We will be swift, we will be brutal, we will be victorious. We will teach them what ponies can do, and they will learn the true meaning of the word fear. They will learn what The Diamond Cutters can do!"
Turning back around, Diamond Tiara looked at the devastation that was happening to her town. The scarred side of her mouth quirked up into a sneer. Drawing her sword, she pointed toward Ponyville.
"CHARGE!" she bellowed. With a roar, the armored ponies started to run forward.
"I'm going to make sure you never eat a cookie again," Diamond Tiara growled before yelling: "because when I'm done with you, you're going to be eating through a bucking straw! "

Aura needs a good C-punting. Or Scootaloo to bomb her with a furious Apple Bloom.
Lol, although, I don't think DT would be drawing her sword twice....
Scowling, she drew her sword.

4929429 Yeah, I wasn't sure if that fact was what was causing it or if it was an error. Good story so far.
Oh and, i'd beat someone down for the cookie situation too.

Well, let's think about this.
You are supposed to lock away your valuables in your footlocker so your things don't get stolen or lost. You aren't allowed to leave anything out.

So...Diamond Tiara is Hawkeye now?

That's gotta be the most inspiring speech in all of speechdom.
Never thought anyone would work The Diamond Cutters into a story like that.
LEAD ON, DIAMOND TIARA! LEAD ON!
The last line isn't realistic. They're mares; they should be reacting like mares, even if they are acting childish.
Oh god
her dream was cheesiness incarnate
Well then again it got me chuckling, so good job

That dream was hilarious.
DT should just tell AB Aura ate the cookies. Bloom would come and kick her ass.
